Message

At Societe Generale Cameroun, I lead cloud security engineering for AWS and Azure production environments. I define guardrails for internal LLM applications and harden Model Context Protocol integrations with OAuth authentication, input validation, least-privilege scopes, and audit logging.

I manage Wiz and AWS Control Tower, and configure Microsoft Entra ID with SCIM provisioning into AWS IAM Identity Center. I also secure Amazon EKS clusters through pod security standards, namespace-scoped access, network policies, and admission control.

At United Bank for Africa (UBA) Cameroon, I implemented cloud security controls across AWS and Azure, including Prisma Cloud posture monitoring and integrated AWS Security Hub findings. I also integrated Snyk into GitLab CI/CD pipelines and developed Python automation for compliance evidence collection.

I began at United Bank for Africa (UBA) Cameroon in IT support, then moved into information security analysis and security engineering through two internal promotions. My work has included alert triage, vulnerability management, cloud access reviews, and supporting PCI DSS and ISO 27001 audits.
